THEY CALLED THE EVIDENCE IN THE CASE OF CIRCUMSTANTIAL. A TEACHER IS BEING CALLED A HERO FOR STOPPING AND ATTEMPTED GROCERY STORE ROBBERY BUT AS RICHARD SHARP REPORTS, HE IS NOT YOUR ORDINARY TEACHER. I WAS WALKING RIGHT ALONG THE STRIP MALL HERE. HE'S THE KIND OF GUY YOU WANT ON YOUR SIDE SO IF ANYONE WAS GOING TO SUBDUE SOMEBODY, YOU ARE THE GUY. I GUESS SO. ON SATURDAY, A DISGRUNTLED CUSTOMER ATTACKED THIS EMPLOYEE WHO TRIED TO STOP THE PERSON FROM STEALING. THE ANGRY CUSTOMER ALSO ATTACKED ANOTHER MAN WHO TRIED TO STOP THE FIGHT. THE ATTACKER HAD IT IN HER HAIR AND SHE WAS JUST TEEING OFF ON HER AND HITTING HER REPEATEDLY. HE'S NOT JUST A SPECIAL ED TEACHER BUT A FORMER MARINE INFANTRYMAN AND A FORMER FOOTBALL PLAYER FROM SAN DIEGO STATE DID WHAT HE DOES BEST. I STEPPED IN. WHAT DID YOU DO? I TACKLED HER. THAT'S RIGHT. HE TACKLED A WOMAN AND SHE PUT UP SUCH A FIGHT THAT HE STRUGGLED TO HOLD HER DOWN FOR 15 MINUTES UNTIL OFFICERS ARRIVED. SHE WAS INTOXICATED WITH ALCOHOL AND DRUGS. HIS WIFE A SHOPPING WHEN THEY SAW THE COMMOTION. HE ALWAYS SEEMS TO GET IN THESE SITUATIONS WHERE HE'S HELPING OUT SOMEBODY. HE REFUSED OFFERS TO BUY HIS GROCERIES AFTER STOPPING THE ATTACK AND JUST WANTED TO MAKE SURE THEY WERE OK. HE SAYS HE'S NOT A HERO. I'D ALMOST 6'4", YOU DON'T WANT TO ARGUE. I APPRECIATE THE SENTIMENT, BUT I'M NOT A HERO. RICHARD SHARP, KCRA OR HE NEWS. THE WOMAN WHO ATTACKED WAS ARRESTED ON CHARGES OF ROBBERY.
